DO: VOLCANO BOARD DOWN AN ACTIVE VOLCANO

Leon:

Becoming part of an adrenaline-filled tour group, complete with jumping in the back of a pick-up truck through the Nicaraguan jungle, hiking intensively for 1 hour Volcan Cerro Negro, celebrating with your new good mates as you all are covered from head to toe of volcanco ash, and having bragging rights that YOU just boarded down an active volcano! And, salsa dancing with them to celebrate the day’s accomplishments!

DO: SURF THE PACIFIC OCEAN IN A REMOTE LOCATION

Isla Los Brasiles:

Driving to the coast via horseback and arriving in one of the most remote destinations that I have ever been to

Goodbye Nicaragua:

I still have sand & bits of pieces of volcanic rock in my shoes, a tan-line from my flip-flops & bikini top, Spanish lingo stuck in my head, and I cannot seem to shake the thoughts of my recents travels in Central America, but oddly enough, it’s time to get on a helicopter in a few short hours, go back to a career that I adore, and head off the west coast of Africa! Humpback whales here I come!

During my adventure travels, this question arose (illustrated in the below photograph), along with “Who would win in a fight Superman vs. Batman?”

Before I Die; Leon, Nicaragua; 2013

I have a lot of answers, but one that sticks is to VISIT ANTARCTICA (in the process of setting up an expedition on my 35th birthday!)! And, I truly believe Batman would kick Superman’s ass!

DREAM. EXPLORE. LIVE.

Thank you for stopping by! My name is Jessica and I have been coined the term "World Traveler." I have trekked to 60+ countries, 48 US states, and even started driving my Jeep around the world on "The Voyage of Discovery!" I suppose you can say I am a bit addicted to global travels!
My career as a Marine Mammal Scientist allows me to spend a few months researching whales, dolphins, turtles, sharks, fish, and endangered species within various international regions.
Feel free to come along for the adventure, you never know where I will end up!
